CHCPBC’s regulatory committees include both registrant members and members of the public. We are seeking public and registrant members for three regulatory committees to ensure adequate diversity of perspectives, lived experience, and profession-specific expertise.
Committee members are compensated for the time needed for preparation and meeting attendance in accordance with CHCPBC’s Board and Committee Member Compensation Policy (PDF). Time commitment varies according to committee and profession; meetings are held during business hours from Monday to Friday. The deadline to submit an Expression of Interest form for joining a committee is April 9, 2025. We will let all respondents know by the end of June whether or not they have been selected for appointment to the committee.
More information about terms of office, terms of reference, expectations, and committee member competencies is found within each form.
